• You start a survey with your base on an
autonomous position. You occupy one or more
control points during the survey, but you do not
have the proper north, east, elevation coordinate
in the field. You get back to the office and you

by some method such as an adjustment of post

but you may place these files anywhere you wish on the data
collector.
